(Though really, it's the other way around.)

Birthday celebrations happened a few days early with another friend who's birthday was yesterday! Tonight my friends all celebrated our two birthdays halfway between each, having some waffles and a bit of cake.

Also, with two friends visiting to see the Blue Man Group, my mom had them bring down a cake she baked and some presents from my family. We cut into the cake after BMG, but I saved the presents for my birthday tonight.

Aside from my friend getting me a red Dalek desktop figure (which is super awesome. It moves around a table and won't fall off at the edge, all the while yelling "Exterminate!") direct from Scotland, and my family getting me Inception and Serenity Vol. 2 Better Days, my brother got me a Nerf Maverick (and 20 more darts)! This is exciting because 1) it's a neat gun and 2) I've never owned a Nerf gun before!

B)

Note: We're not supposed to have these in the residency, but all my friends do and haven't gotten caught (my freshmen year roommate did though), and now I can join in on the action.

tl;dr: I have a Nerf Maverick! My first Nerf!
